Acharya Prashant explains a verse from the Bhagavad Gita (3.30), noting it as a favorite because of its very clear instruction. He mentions that Shri Krishna usually imparts knowledge and then leaves the individual free to act on that understanding. However, in this verse, Shri Krishna does not leave that much responsibility on the person, instead giving a direct command. The speaker questions the logic of calling something 'mine' when it is destined to be taken away, often without any notice or warning. He likens life to a battle, stating that if you view it as such, you will find that every battle begins and ends, and on the day it ends, you will discover that you have lost. This is the most miserable state of being: not knowing anything for certain, living in a state of 'maybe'. For instance, one's sense of beauty is dependent on others' validation; without someone to tell you that you are beautiful, you would not believe it. This inability to trust anything is the greatest sickness. Acharya Prashant then delves into the term 'Adhyatma-chetasa' (spiritual consciousness) from the verse. He explains that ordinary consciousness is extroverted, its nature is to look outwards through the senses, and it is always attracted to the world. This ordinary consciousness is a 'reflected consciousness' that forms an identity based on the world. For example, seeing your daughter makes you a 'father'. This self, created by the world, is a false self, the ego. Ordinary consciousness first accepts the world as truth and then defines itself in relation to it. This is the fundamental delusion: believing the world is true. Spiritual consciousness, in contrast, operates in the opposite way. It first looks at the self and then sees the world, understanding that the world's value is projected by our own ignorance and desires. The world is a trap, an enemy that gives you a false self and then causes pain. The one who understands this trick will fight. This is why Shri Krishna instructs to fight. The world is designed to trap you, and you must fight to win. The one who understands this game will engage in battle, while the one who does not will become a slave.
